Why read it?
1 author picked The Cruellest Month as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I found this book gripping and suspenseful; in short, I couldnât put it down!
It begins with a sĂŠance in a haunted house. What a great way to start a murder mystery! The folks in this tight-knit community have interesting quirks and fascinating backgrounds, providing a host of possible perpetrators.
This is a masterful look into how people find reasons to grow suspicious of each other, and to treat each other less-than-kindly. Chief Inspector Gamache is having devastating problems of his own: someone in the organization is out to destroy his life.
Who can he trust? How can he solveâŚ
